With less than 48 hours until Iowans kick off the GOP caucuses, a crowd of California lawmakers have joined Steve Forbes, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and other supporters making a final push for Texas Gov. Rick Perry.
California Assemblymembers Dan Logue, Shannon Grove, Brian Jones and Curt Hagman have all hit the ground in the Hawkeye State Iowa Monday, ready for duty.

Logue, in a phone interview, just told us that “Iowa is going to do well for Perry — and this is just the first step of many steps.”
The Texas governor, he insists, is “the only candidate” who can compete with the current frontrunner (former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt) Romney financially, and who can go on to challenge him in key states like South Carolina.
And Perry backers like Logue are running hard against former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum, now competing hard for the same social conservative vote as Perry.
Check out the latest blistering attack ad from pro-Perry forces:

Logue called Santorum “probably the best friend Mitt will ever have.”
“When he leaves Iowa, he’ll have no money” to go on to South Carolina, leaving the way open for Romney, Logue said. “So the biggest fear that Romney has is a comeback by Perry.”
Said Logue: “The bottom line is this: we want the next president to do for America what Perry has done for Texas — to create the largest job increase in the last ten years…We don’t want another four years of Obama..and Rick Perry is the anti-Obama candidate.”
“He’s down to earth. He is the grass roots candidate…He knows what it means to be an average hard working citizen,” Logue said.
“Romney is the Wall Street candidate; Perry is the mainstream candidate.”‘
As he goes from churches to community centers in Perry, Dubuque and other locales, Logue said Californians will be asking Iowa voters: “Do we want a Rockefeller Republican, or a Reagan Republican?”
